My pet peeve is that whiny, nasal Mmmmmm-Yaaaa! that US porn starlets all seems to be trained to make.
That’s like saying masturbating is gay. It’s okay for them not to like heterosexual porn but saying that it’s borderline gay is ridiculous. Why would gay people watch hetero porn anyway?
I made the topic because I was wondering if this was a trend or something(I do not agree with the reasoning) because I had heard it from more than one person.
Reminds me of The Simpsons “Ew you kissed a girl? That is so gay!” 
No penis in my porn please. I don’t care for hard core stuff or gynecology shots but I like nude women alone or with other women. I guess the fantasy for me is that they are just warming themselves up for me.
Those guys are probably closeted and overcompensating. “EWW a penis in a vagina? Who wants to see that. Oh I mean who wants to see a penis of course, yes, bring on the lesbians. I LOVE LESBIANS BECAUSE I’M SUPER STRAIGHT”
I don’t mind hetero porn. The guy is just a stunt cock.
Thank you. If it were a hot dog there would at least be some nutritional value.
(Not bothered at all, btw.)
It’s been an eternity since I had the slightest desire to watch hetero hardcore (y’know, the stuff with clearly visible genitalia interacting and the…er, consequences; I hate using loaded, meaningless terms like “porn”). Even when I rented my first adult tape from a local video store…that should give you some idea how freaking long ago this was…it was hard to watch. If I had any alternative, I probably would’ve given up on it within a month.
I’m with Clothahump that the performers are hard on the eyes. More than that, though, is that hardcore makes sex seem sordid and disgusting. And the performers very rarely look like they’re enjoying it at all. Frankly, I have trouble even seeing the point; the typical XXX production has all the eroticism of a punch in the face.
But the huge, huge turnoff, the dealbreaker, the reason I’m never, ever going back?
Semen.
I HATE money shots. Hate them, hate them, hate them. They’re foul and disgusting and sickening, and EVERY act ends with one, and I can’t even bear to look. That anyone considers them necessary is just another sad example of stupid patriarchial garbage ruining everything it touches thousands of years after its outlived its usefulness. In fact, I’d be hard-pressed to find anyone, heck, even married couples wanting to have a baby, who finds messy ejaculate attractive. (There’s a reason it’s supposed to go inside a woman’s body, y’know.)
Now, softcore, like the kind Playboy used to produce, that has hope. There you’ll find romance, chemistry, seduction, the kind of things that make a sexual relationship worth it. But there’s good and there’s bad, and it depends in large part how much everyone involved cares. The worst softcore is flat-out depressing.
(Man, can’t wait to see the kind of responses I’ll get for this. 
)
…well…I…mostly agree with you. No for real I do, in fact I’m not really a fan of modern commercial porn. Why? The chicks don’t even look like humans, they look like porn clones from porn island. They all look the same, hard implant boobs and collagen lips and weird looking bleached vaginas and bleach blonde hair and artificial tan skin tone and press on nails with no pubes.
I prefer classic porn or amateur stuff, there you see attractive but real looking women, and their differences are interesting(you get surprises like pencil nipples too which are a nice bonus) they are attractive but in the way that you might see a hot chick on the street, not human barbie doll.
This is interesting because a lot of the things you mention don’t feature as a problem in gay (guy on guy) porn. First of all because the audience is exclusively looking at only one gender you don’t have the issue of a disparity between the looks of performers. The men are always lookers, even if it’s only within the category they’re going for (so if you’re into bears you might like a tubby guy with a beard, but it’s not my thing).
Second - semen is what it’s all about. If there isn’t a cum shot then I, quite frankly, feel robbed. A man ejaculating is the apex of the male sexual experience, and seeing it creates a completely lizard reaction of “WANT!” for me. I’d imagine it’s the same for a lot of gay men.
A lot of gay performers definitely look like they’re enjoying themselves, in fact the ones where they don’t seem to be are where I suspect they’ve paid some straight guy to be gay for the scene and he’s doing stuff that doesn’t turn his crank. That said there are stars that claim to be gay for pay who perform extremely well (NSFW - http:// Adult Star Tom Smith | Gay | AEBN - Tom Smith is one such star and has a very respectable portfolio of gay stuff, and he’s one of my favourite performers, I’ve never seen him phoning it in). When you get into the more amateur level studies, or those that take a more philosophical approach to their porn (like Treasure Island Media who market themselves as documenting gay male sexuality, rather than making contrived pornography) you end up with people who have chosen to work together so it’s less of a humdrum job and more fun.
On the contrary to your preference for softcore, I’m not in the least bit interested in a story or some kind of set up for the sex. I’m happy for there to be props and a fantasy invoked, like guys having sex in the locker room wearing sports kit, but I don’t want to have to watch several minutes of them talking about how one guy let the team down, and how he’s going to have to pay everyone back and can he think how (cue music, clothes off). It’s not what I log on for.
I agree that money shots are silly and unrealistic. I’ve never met a guy who had a thing for them, and they sure don’t do anything for me. Keep that stuff in a condom, it’s easier for cleanup!
I find the vast majority of hetero porn degrading and disgusting too, but there are a few good producers that make what is essentially Playboy porn minus the wannabe-plot and with genitalia added in. Attractive women, tolerably attractive men who don’t slap, cuss, or degrade the women, etc., and frankly is just a lot less kinky and IMO more enjoyable than the EXTREME HARDCORE TEN MILLION SLUTS IN GAGGED TENTACLE BUTT-RAPE #292 crap that’s so prevalent.
Supposedly “just plain romantic sex” is considered a tiny niche, mainly for women/couples and a very few guys. Too bad.
Even when it’s a natural result of two people enjoying themselves? What exactly are they supposed to do at the end, just fade to black?
Does “money shot” imply something more than a visible male orgasm?
Yes. It means withdrawing from the vagina at the moment of orgasm, and ejaculating on the woman’s back, stomach or face.
Oh. If it’s in the woman, it’s not a money shot? Misconception corrected.
Really? You could start by walking out your front door and talking to people. There are TONS of people who find it attractive. That’s why it’s so prevalent in porn! It may not be your cuppa, but it works for a lot of people.
I agree that fake moaning and other fakery is a turnoff. But not all porn is like that. If you think that it is, then you’re not looking hard enough. It’s really pretty easy to find stuff where it’s obvious that the participants are genuinely enjoying themselves.
That’s the great thing about those huge free porn sites – there’s something for everyone. You just have to search in the right categories.
If only it were that easy. Try finding “without a money shot” on a big free porn site… most of the categories are way too broad.
I can’t wait for the age of semantic porn to dawn, when every clip is automatically tagged and labeled by every imaginable criteria 
Funny, I find most of them don’t have a money shot. And it’s pretty easy to predict when it’s going to happen if there is one. Can’t you just close the window just before that?
Wow, are the major, mainstream “we-sell-DVDs” adult studios still pushing that look? Aside from the “no pubes” part, that’s the same look they were pushing in the late 1980s when I watched my first porn video.
I guess y’all know how to tell if there’s a porn star at the gas station?
At the last second he pulls the nozzle out and sprays gasoline all over the trunk of his car.
